I’m skipping on a run today because my legs are crazy sore and i’ve had a total of like 10 hours of sleep for the past 2 weeks.
For some reason, i’s hard to come to terms with it and I feel real bad for skipping but also my health needs to come first and I already know it’d be a bad run.
How do you guys deal with this? It’s like i know it’s fine but also like I really want to run. But sometimes I need to stop myself.

Occasionally a random rest day will improve your performance, especially if you have not recovered from your last session. You could also try and alternate activity like swimming or cycling.

Sounds as if you need to sleep first, before you can focus on anything else. If you get enough sleep your entire body will recuperate enough for you to run again.

You need to conduct PCC's (Pre Combat Checks) and PCI's (pre Combat Inspections) on yourself at all times to stay in top fighting condition. Your body is a machine, and without proper maintenance you run the risk of taking yourself out of the fight. You have identified that you are sleep deficient and possibly close to muscle overuse in your legs. That should be all the justification or rationale you need to take a down day and focus on complex stretching and recovery.
Hell, go for a walk if you really feel that you need to get some movement in today.
